Becky Tries To Kiss Lisa Right in Front of Carla | Coronation Street

If there’s one thing Coronation Street has always excelled at, it’s keeping viewers on the edge of their seats with explosive storylines that threaten to rip apart relationships just when they seem most secure. And this time, the soap doesn’t disappoint. The latest twist in the Lisa–Carla–Becky saga has left fans divided, with some rooting for Lisa’s loyalty to Carla, while others wonder if the return of Becky Swain could completely derail their future together.

The drama began when Becky resurfaced in Weatherfield, throwing Lisa’s world into chaos. For nearly four years, Lisa had believed her ex-wife Becky was dead, killed in the line of duty. So when Becky suddenly appeared alive and standing in her living room during their daughter Betsy’s eighteenth birthday party, Lisa was left reeling. Even more shocking, Becky admitted she had faked her death, spending the last few years hiding out in Spain under a new identity after a failed undercover operation forced her into witness protection.

Lisa struggled to comprehend why Becky had staged such an elaborate disappearance. On one hand, she was furious that her ex had abandoned her and their daughter without explanation. On the other, old emotions began resurfacing, stirring up painful memories of their marriage. Becky’s revelations were backed up by Detective Inspector Costello, but his word didn’t completely erase Lisa’s doubts. Why return now? And what did Becky really want?

Carla, Lisa’s current fiancée, immediately sensed trouble. Becky’s reappearance threatened to destabilize their relationship, especially since Lisa was torn between anger, confusion, and lingering attachment. Carla did her best to reassure Lisa that she was standing by her side, but Becky’s continued presence in their lives kept the tension simmering. The last thing Carla wanted was for Betsy to be pulled into the drama, but inevitably, the secret about her mother being alive slipped out. Betsy, overwhelmed with emotion, didn’t know what to feel.

Things escalated further when Becky announced she had rented a flat nearby, ensuring her return to Weatherfield wasn’t just a short visit. She showed up at No. 6 once again, asking for help moving her belongings. Carla, already irritated, brushed her off and told Betsy she had work to do. But Becky cleverly turned the situation to her advantage. She mentioned needing someone with a car, prompting Betsy to suggest that Lisa lend a hand. Reluctantly, Lisa agreed, not realizing the emotional storm that lay ahead.

Their journey didn’t go smoothly—Lisa’s car ran out of petrol, leaving the two of them stranded together. What should have been an inconvenient setback quickly turned into a dangerous emotional confrontation. Becky seized the opportunity to question Lisa about her relationship with Carla. Lisa insisted she was happy and committed to her fiancée, but Becky refused to back down. She confessed that during her four years away, she had been unable to move on. She claimed jealousy over Lisa’s new relationship was the real reason she had come back.

In an almost symbolic gesture, Becky offered Lisa her favorite childhood treat, a white chocolate mousse. The simple act carried heavy emotional weight, representing shared history and unspoken feelings. Lisa, already emotionally vulnerable, found herself drawn into Becky’s intensity. And then, in a moment that shocked viewers, Becky leaned in, attempting to kiss Lisa.

Just as their faces edged closer, the moment was shattered. Carla and Betsy suddenly arrived with a can of petrol to rescue them. The interruption couldn’t have come at a more dramatic time, and fans were left asking: would Lisa have gone through with the kiss if Carla hadn’t shown up?

Carla immediately sensed something was off. Later at the Rovers, she confided her insecurities to Ryan, admitting that she felt Becky was trying to undermine her relationship with Lisa. Carla worried that she was being cast as the villain—the one standing between Lisa and her former love. Ryan tried to calm her nerves but couldn’t help planting seeds of doubt, warning her not to underestimate Becky’s determination.

The tension didn’t ease. That same evening, Lisa received a message from Becky. It was a photo of the white chocolate mousse, accompanied by a teasing note that made it clear Becky wasn’t giving up. Lisa quickly hid the message from Carla, insisting to her fiancée that she had nothing to worry about. But fans were quick to pick up on Lisa’s hesitation, sparking heated debates online about where her true loyalties lie.

Meanwhile, Carla took a firmer stance. The next time she crossed paths with Becky, she didn’t hold back. She told her outright that everyone would be better off if she had stayed dead. But Becky, never one to back down, smirked at the challenge, making it clear she wasn’t going anywhere.

All of this has left fans deeply divided. Some believe Lisa would never betray Carla, insisting that her heart belongs to her fiancée no matter what. Others argue that Becky’s emotional hold on Lisa is too strong, and that the almost-kiss proved Lisa is still conflicted. Social media has been ablaze with speculation, with many predicting that a love triangle is inevitable.

Adding fuel to the fire, actress Amy, who plays Becky, has spoken about her role in recent interviews. She admitted she relishes the opportunity to stir up drama and understands why fans are furious about Becky’s interference in Carla and Lisa’s relationship. However, she teased that Becky’s presence isn’t just about rekindling romance—it’s also about unfinished business and hidden truths that are yet to be revealed.

But Becky isn’t the only character stirring up trouble. Over on another front, viewers will see Carl manipulate Debbie in a chilling storyline. When Debbie spots Abby at a hotel and questions her, Carl cruelly suggests her confusion is down to dementia, leaving her humiliated. Later, CCTV footage reveals Abby heading toward Carl’s room, confirming Debbie’s worst suspicions. This subplot adds another layer of darkness to the week’s episodes, showing that deceit and betrayal are running rampant across Weatherfield.

At the same time, Tyrone’s road to recovery following his devastating accident offers a glimmer of hope. After weeks in hospital, he finally prepares to return home in a wheelchair, supported by Fizz and his family. The storyline, created with help from the Spinal Injuries Association, has been praised for its authenticity and emotional depth. But even Tyrone’s journey is shadowed by unresolved anger—he’s determined to uncover who was behind the hit-and-run that nearly cost him his life.

Back in Lisa’s world, though, the central question remains: what does Becky really want? Is she trying to win Lisa back out of love, or is there a more sinister reason for her return? And most importantly, if given another chance, would Lisa actually kiss her ex-wife and risk destroying her future with Carla?

For now, Coronation Street fans can only watch in suspense as this gripping storyline unfolds. With Becky renting a flat nearby and inserting herself deeper into Lisa and Carla’s lives, the drama shows no signs of slowing down. Carla may insist she has faith in Lisa, but trust can be fragile, especially when an old flame is working tirelessly to reignite the spark.

One thing is certain: Weatherfield hasn’t seen the last of Becky’s scheming, and the fallout could change everything for Lisa, Carla, and Betsy.

Coronation Street airs on ITV1 every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 8 p.m., with episodes also available on ITVX. And with the storm that’s brewing between Becky, Lisa, and Carla, viewers won’t want to miss a single moment.
